Bastille (estilizado como B?STILLE) é uma banda de indie pop inglesa de Londres, formada em 2010. Eles começaram como um projeto solo do cantor-compositor Dan Smith, que mais tarde decidiu formar uma banda. O quarteto foi completado por Chris 'Woody' Wood, William Farquarson e Kyle Simmons. O nome da banda vem do dia da Queda da Bastilha, mesmo dia do aniversário de Smith.
Em dezembro de 2010, EMI Music anunciou que haviam oferecido Bastille um contrato com a Virgin Records.

A There's an albatross around your neck E All the things you've said and the things you've done A Can you carry it with no regrets E Can you stand the person you've become
C#mE Ooh there's a light x
AEC#mB Your Albatross let it go let it go AEC#mB Your Albatross shoot it down shoot it down A When you just can't shake EB The heavy weight of living
A Stepping forward out into the day E Shrugging off the dust and memory A Though it's soaring still above your head E It is out of sight and none shall see
C#mE Oooh there's a light x
